HTC Tattoo to Get Android 2.1 Upgrade [HTC Tattoo Sense UI Integration With Android 2.1 Available Soon]

Tweet

With so much hype around HTC’s latest smartphones that saw daylight last month during the Mobile World Congress, we can’t blame you if you don’t remember the HTC Tattoo. A cheaper phone that features a smaller, resistive touchscreen, the HTC Tattoo has been confirmed to be getting an Android 2.1 upgrade that will put it in the same league with the big boys — kinda.

According to the French from Frandroid citing a dodgy translation, apparently HTC has confirmed that the latest iteration of Google’s Android OS will be available on the company’s most affordable Android device, the HTC Tattoo.

Kindly note we understand that now that a phone running Android OS 2.1 is available that you are excited to get an update for your Tattoo. We are still working hard to building Sense for this new version but we expect to have the upgrade finished and ready to go soon. Please understand that it takes time to customize any Android version to ensure you have the intuitive experience Sense provides, and we hope you can be patient for just a little while longer.

Integrating Sense with Android 2.1 on a lower-end mobile with a resistive screen may not be as fast and smooth as we would expect, right? While there’s no word how much it will take for the upgrade to be officially available, we’re being assured it should hit soon.
